174 Haunting

Gu Man looked at Gu Rou’s name and suddenly thought that the Gu family would come too. It would be bad luck if she bumped into them.

As she was thinking, Gu Man heard a familiar male voice. “Gu Man?”

Gu Man looked up and saw Zhang Yue not far away. Gu Man did not want to talk to him and quickly pulled Huang Jue and Bai Ling away. “Let’s go sit down.”

Zhang Yue’s appearance meant that the Gu family and the Zhang family might be beside him. She could not be bothered to meet those people.

“Cousin, a brother is calling you.” Huang Jue turned around as he walked and saw that Zhang Yue was about to catch up.

“Don’t worry about him,” Gu Man said calmly.

She had only taken two steps when she saw Bai Yun walking over with two elegant ladies and a little beauty.

It was Mrs. Zhou and Zhou Ying. Gu Man did not recognize the other lady.

Gu Man could only stop. Mrs. Zhou and her daughter were also very surprised to see Gu Man. Zhou Ying quickly ran over and said happily, “Gu Man, you’re here too. If I had known that you would come, I would have invited you.”

Gu Man nodded and greeted Mrs. Zhou, “Hello, Mrs. Zhou.”

Mrs. Zhou smiled and nodded. “We meet again.”

Bai Ling let go of Gu Man’s hand and held that unfamiliar lady’s hand intimately. She introduced her to Gu Man, “Miss Gu Man, this is my mother.”

It was Lady Bai, Xiang Li.

Then, she turned around and introduced Gu Man to Xiang Li. “Mom, this is the Miss Gu Man I told you about.”

When Xiang Li heard Zhou Ying call Gu Man, she was already looking at her. She was stunned at a glance and thought to herself, No wonder her pure-hearted brother suddenly fell for her.

Gu Man also nodded at Xiang Li.

Xiang Li smiled at Bai Ling and said, “You did mention your Miss Gu Man, but you didn’t say that she was so good-looking.”

Bai Ling giggled. “I just wanted to surprise you.”

Gu Man also briefly introduced Huang Jue to everyone before greeting each other.

Xiang Li looked at Gu Man’s indifferent expression and her neither servile nor overbearing attitude and immediately had a good impression of her.

Recalling that Gu Man and the others seemed to be rushing somewhere just now, he asked, “Where are you guys going?”

Bai Ling said, “We want to take a seat.”

“What’s the hurry? There’s still more than twenty minutes. It’s boring to sit there. It’s not easy for us to meet, it’s better for us to chat here,” Xiang Li said as she patted Bai Ling’s hand.

When Gu Man heard this, she could not continue to insist on dodging. At this moment, Zhang Yue’s voice sounded from behind. “Hello, Mrs. Bai. Hello, Mrs. Zhou.”

Gu Man cursed in her heart. He was haunting her!

The wealthy circle in Han City was really not big. There were only a few people who came and went. They were all familiar with each other. Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Bai called out familiarly, “Young Master Zhang.”

Madam Bai asked, “Young Master Zhang, your mother is here too?”

As Gu Man had expected, Zhang Yue said, “Yes, she’s chatting with Mrs. Gu and the others over there.”

“Are you trying to cheer for your girlfriend, Gu Rou? Your relationship is really good,” Mrs. Bai teased with a smile.

Zhang Yue didn’t know why he looked at Gu Man reflexively when he heard Mrs. Bai say that. He replied with a smile, “Madam Bai is teasing me. This is a big matter in Han City. I’m just here to join in the fun.”

“There’s no need to be embarrassed. Everyone in our circle knows about your relationship,” Mrs. Bai said with a smile.

Zhang Yue smiled awkwardly and did not say anything.

However, Mrs. Zhou was not as enthusiastic as Mrs. Bai. Ever since she greeted him as “Young Master Zhang”, she did not say anything else.

“Mom, Zhou Ying, Gu Man, and I will go look elsewhere. It’s so boring listening to you adults talk,” Bai Ling said to Mrs. Bai coquettishly.

When Mrs. Bai heard this, she immediately pointed at Bai Ling and scolded her with a smile, “Listen, listen. You’re already despising your mother. You really can’t keep her when she grows up.”

Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, “Let them go. Let’s not make them hate us for nothing.”

Mrs. Bai patted Bai Ling’s hand and pretended to be angry. “You naughty girl. Hurry up and go.”

Bai Ling was free and quickly called out to Gu Man and Zhou Ying, “Let’s go over there and take a look.”

Gu Man pulled Huang Jue and nodded at Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Bai before following Bai Ling.
